So unless the ultrasound tech is mistaken, I'll have a little grandson in a few months. I know, Ri doesn't even look pregnant in this shot. But, it is her first, and she was little to begin with. She actually does have a nice, little round tummy, but it's still small enough to stay hidden on occasion. That's okay - she and baby are doing well and that's all that matters.

We will find out tomorrow what the gender of our first grandchild is to be. Ri and her hubby had the ultrasound on Monday. The baby is healthy and growing well, and it's momma is feeling pretty good now. They asked the ultrasound tech to slip a note with the baby's gender in an envelope and seal it. Then they took it to the bakery to have a cake made that has been dyed either blue or pink. After church we'll have everyone gather around while Ri cuts the cake and we all get to find out if it's a boy or a girl at the same time. I'm so excited, and so is everyone else.

I took a little hiatus from blogging for several reasons. It wasn't a planned break. It started when we all got sick, but with everything that was going on right after that, it was just too much to stay on top of it all and blog at the same time. I'm sure you all understand.
The good news is that all is still well in our little corner of the world. Ri and the new little one that's on the way are progressing well. She has had some uncomfortable symptoms (including, but not limited to morning sickness) and has been sick a couple of times, but over all, she and the baby are doing well. We look forward to finding out what gender this new little person is in a couple of weeks. They will have the ultrasound next week and will do a cake reveal of it the following Sunday at church, so we'll all find out at the same time. I can't wait!
Kay is currently house sitting for some friends, and taking care of all their animals while they are away. She is such an animal person she is loving it.
Bre, Beenie, and T.Lynn are also doing fine. They are all quite busy with their own interests and our homeschool. Though they would much prefer to just be busy with their own interests.
I hope to be able to post again regularly, but we'll have to see how that goes. We've got a lot going on, and it gets a little hectic from time to time.
I hope all is well with your families and that you all have exciting things to look forward to this year.

A Bit About Me
